Remarkable Writing Tablet on Sale for $499

The Remarkable Writing Tablet is one of the best 10.3 inch writing tablets on the market, but they are seeing increased competition from the Onyx Boox Note and the upcoming Sony DPT-CP1. In order to stay relevant the company is running a limited time promotion and you can buy one today for $499 from the Remarkable Store. This is a fairly good deal because this price provides you with $100 in savings.

The Remarkable Writing Tablet features a 10.3-inch Canvas display and utilizes E-Ink Carta. The screen has a capacitive touchscreen and you can interact with most elements with your finger or the accompanied stylus. The note taking experience has palm rejection technology, which means you can easily rest your palm on it. The screen is completely flush with the bezel and the resolution is 1872×1404 with 226 PPI.

Underneath the hood is a 1GHZ Arm A8 CPU processor and 512MB of RAM. You have 8GB of internal storage and there is no SD card. The Remarkable has Wi-Fi that is primarily uses to fetch firmware updates and to synchronize your notes on a local network. This device does not have an internet browser or any other way to connect to websites.

The Remarkable has been selling like hotcakes and in a January blog post they proclaimed they have sold over 35,000 units and the company has just confirmed with Good e-Reader that in two and half months they sold over 15,000 devices.

Michael Kozlowski is the Editor in Chief of Good e-Reader. He has been writing about audiobooks and e-readers for the past ten years. His articles have been picked up by major and local news sources and websites such as the CNET, Engadget, Huffington Post and Verge.

But the cover and stylus are STILL sold separately? How much do they cost? I bet it is more than $100 combined thus net savings is a lot less.

Oh fantastic, the remarkably expensive device is now slightly cheaper but still too expensive. Let me just think about paying that kind of price… No.

I do not see why a black and white eink display would cost so much. Technically a tablet is cheaper GB per GB than any ereader

I own a remarkable tablet. It is my single most essential business tool. I am able I take notes, export them to Evernote and save hours of work per week, it is reliable and works like pen and paper every time.
